Tikolo talks tough
Five years after stunning the cricket world by making the cut for the 2003 World Cup semi-finals in South Africa, Kenyan cricket is crying out for help. With the lack of funds, paucity of matches in its international calendar and the insouciant attitude of the government, these are clearly troubled times. Steve Tikolo speaks to IANS about what needs to be done.
Cricket Kenya needs at least $1.2 million to run the sport professionally in the country but there is a shortfall of around $500,000. Kenya gets $450,000 from the ICC, $150,000 from TV rights and $100,000 from a newly-acquired sponsorship from a local company Tusker.
